Mumbai: Munawar Faruqui is currently locked up in a makeshift prison on reality show ‘Lock Upp’, presented by Kangana Ranaut.
The stand-up comedian also spent time in a real prison after being arrested last year in Indore for allegedly ‘insulting Hindu gods and goddesses’ during one of his shows.
In a video posted by producers ALTBalaji on Twitter from Lock Upp, Munawar is seen recounting his experiences in a real prison.
Munawar said passing time inside a jail is the most difficult thing.
He recalled how he used to walk inside jail in the morning to pass time, when the temperature would be 6-7 degrees Celsius, but since the barrack was very small and crowded, he had to be extra careful so as not to push a fellow-prisoner.
Since prisoners are not given shoes, he had to walk barefoot.
“7 bje se walk karna shuru karte the, 3-4 ghante tak walk kiye, ek dum thakke paer ek dum patthar jaisa ho gaya. baithta tha, lagta tha 4-5 ghanta ho gaya, dekho to gadhi mein to pone 8… bas 45 minutes (I used to start walking around 7, would walk for 3-4 hours, would feel very tired and feet would become like stones. I would sit, thinking that it must have been 4-5 hours since I’ve been walking. But then I would look at the clock and see it’s only 7:45 am, and I have only been walking for 45 minutes),” says in the video clip.
